halie and the moon's first full-length album, "Blue Transmissions: vol. 1 & 2", immerses itself in a world of ephemeral beauty, love, and sweet melancholy in equal measures. "Otherworldly yet intimate, their aesthetic is a kind of catch-and-release, grounded in pop smarts and yet forever urging itself into the firmament. The result is a symphonic, atmospheric sound that is no less mysterious and thrilling for being entirely accessible." (Rick Levin, Eugene Weekly, 5/4/17).
6 never-before-recorded songs combine with 4 re-mixed and re-mastered tracks featured on the band's debut EP "Blue Transmissions: vol. 1" (released 12/8/15) to create a fully-realized body of work representing these musical "Blue Transmissions" in all their myriad forms.

lyrics
Into the World
Written by Daniel Gallo (drawing the sky music, BMI)
He spoke you into the world
On the edge of his tongue you see
He was a crestfallen tapestry
And the silk of you
Wove something true
When you came over the hill
And he stumbled to profess
Because sometimes the words they escape us
When the light comes to save us
And you... you...
He wrote you into the blue
On the edges of the sky you see
Pulled treasure from a deep green sea
And the world held you
Like something true
When you rose
Over the hill
A story from a stolen dream
Dancing moonlight on his tapestry
But could he believe something so true?
Only light can escape through
And you... you... you... you...
This is perhaps Halie Loren's best album to date. The variety of styles, and the songwriting, are excellent. I have been a fan since she did the Port Au Prince Intl Jazz Festival a couple years ago. This album transcends genres. todd1049
